Crisis Christmas Concert
Thursday 12th December – 5pm-8:30pm
Hope House Church, Wellington Street, Barnsley
We are honoured to yet again be performing at this concert to help raise
funds for the Crisis Charity. I have attached the poster for the event. If
you have any family or friends who wish to attend to support this event they
must get a ticket by visiting

https://www.crisis.org.uk/get-
s/barnsley-carol-service/ The event is free to attend but all those
attending to watch the service must have a ticket. Choir members who are
performing will not need to get a ticket.
At this concert we will be singing:
Shine, Winter’s Tale, White Christmas and Streets of London
We are asking members to get there for 5pm so we can sing through the
pieces, get in position etc but please don’t worry if you cant arrive at
that time. The concert starts at 6:30pm so the latest we would ask members
to arrive for is 6pm so we are in an seated before the audience begins.
We will be wearing concert dress – black with a splash of red.
If you are planning to sing in this concert please can you let the
registration team know when you are signing in so we have a general idea of
the number attending.
Barnsley Singers Christmas Concert
Saturday 14th December 3pm-9pm
Emmanuel Church, Huddersfield Road
We will be rehearsing at the church from 3pm-5pm in black rehearsal
t-shirts. Members will then need to leave the church and return ready for
the concert in concert dress (black with a splash of red) by no later than
6:30pm. The concert is from 7pm-9:30pm with a 20 minute interval.
Please note there is no parking at Emmanuel, please use the local area but
be respectful of local residents. There are a limited number of disabled
parking spaces available and these will be provided only to those who hold a
Blue Disabled Parking Badge. If you require a space please bring your badge
to rehearsal on Tuesday and you will be added to the list. These spaces are
on a first come first served basis.
We will be holding a raffle during the concert, if you have any prizes that
you could donate please could you bring these to rehearsal.
We also still need some non-singing volunteers to help out at the Concert to
help man the car park, take tickets, sell programmes and raffle tickets and
help seat guests in the church. If you know of anyone who is free to help at
this event can you please let me know asap – it would be greatly appreciate
and will help the event run as smoothly as possible.

Requiem
Chasing Cars
